I initially planned to have a longer board the length of the skate frame and add the RGB LEDs onto the board, but supplies for RGB LEDs that were available for Economic assembly ran out in December, as I imagine people were creating their own fun LED projects for the holidays. This forced me to rethink my plan. I then decided to add pads to the board so I could solder LED strips that I could then adhere to the frame and cut to length. I think this came out to be a better solution, since I can accommodate different frame lengths in the future. As a result I don't have to worry about getting the component packages baked during the production process to remove humidity, as I later learned these components absorb moisture and are sensitive to the heat changes, causing them to regularly fail. The smaller board size (less than 100mm x 100mm) resulted in a much cheaper board as well.
